Postmaster said, "Custo­mers
will benefit by saving a
trip to the post office to pur­chase
stamps. The Postal
Service benefits by reducing
lobby overcrowding."
The Postal Service began
expanding its stamp sales
outlets in October 1985.

in the Northeast Region
to begin offering stamps
through the program which
has already generated over
$30 million in sales
throughout the nation since
its inception.
"We sold over 100 Stamp
Packs in the first two
hours," said Steven Weitz.
Vice President of Food-town.
"It's the best thing
since sliced bread and it
saves me a trip to the post
office," were some of the
customers comments on this
new innovation.
Beginning this month, the
Stamp Pack will be sold at
the following stores:
Foodtown, Clearmeadow
Mall, East Meadow.
Foodtown, TSS Mall,
Levittown
Foodtown, Hempstead
Tpke. and Rt. 107, Bethpage

Shortly after that, the

in Supermarkets
throughout Long Island.
Fatal Housefire
On the afternoon of November 18, 1986, Bethpage Fire
dept. Dispatcher John Speelman received a report of a
house fire at #16 Miller Road, Bethpage.
First arriving Asst. Chief John Fitzwilliam advised
attending firefighters that there was a report of a woman
trapped, probably on the second lloor. Chief Fitzwilliam
began a search of the second floor, disregarding personal
risk. After a time, Firefighter James Giovanniello reported
that he could not see or hear Ch. Fitzwilliam and that he was
going ahead to search for him. The Chief and Giovanniello
soon located each other through the smoke and together
they searched the second floor bedroom while fellow fire­fighters
kept flames away from the stairway, saving they an
escape-way. Both men had to return to the street to change
air bottles. The exhausted Chief stayed there while Captain
Mancini joined Giovanniello to continue the search.
Meantime, Asst. Chief Durr, Ex-Chief DeBobes and fire­fighter
Patsos raised a ladder to the room from the outside of
the house. Both teams almost simultaneously located 80
year old Pearl Pellintz. With a group effort, the men brought
the victim outside and worked to resuscitate the woman. She
was admitted to Mid-Island Hospital in critical condition,
and later suecombed.
Nassau Country Police
Commissioner Samuel J.
Ro/zi made an emphatic
point today...his Depart­ment
does not solicit funds
from the public.
"We have had a wave of
complaints from the people
of the county lately. Tele­phone
calls tell lis that solici­tors
for police groups are
pressuring businesses and
private citizens to make
contributions.

and its units do not ask resi­dents
for money."

"Such implications are

Many who complain indi­cate

The Nassau County PBA

make any public solicita­tions.
There are three larger
groups which seem to have
on-going campaigns for
funds. They are the Nassau
Police Conference, a group
which includes many
smaller departments; the
New York Federation of
Police, which primarily
represents Westchester New
York Federation of Police,
and the Metropolitan Police
Conference, made up of
groups on a wider scale.
Investigation of com­plaints
is done by the Nassau
Police Special Investiga­tions
Squad to determine if
improper tactics have been
used.
"In most cases, people
contacting us learn solicitors
do not represent this
Department and they turn
them off," Rozzi said. "If we
find the solicitors are not
registered, they are required
to cease operation until they
are issued permits and their
aproach is reviewed.
